The Panthers didn’t make a big splash, but they shored up a few areas of need. Matt Kalil brings some more leadership and stability to the offensive line and bringing back Fozzy Whittaker adds depth to the running backs as well as special teams.

On defense they brought back some familiar faces in Captain Munnerlyn and Julius Peppers, and re-signed Charles Johnson and Kawann Short. If they have any gas left in the tank, Carolina will have good depth on defense. The addition of Mike Adams will add a lot on the back end.

The Saints made few moves and didn’t lose many players, other than Cooks. Sterling Moore and Jarius Byrd are still trying to find a new home, but the Saints could replace them in the draft or by waiting for the later cuts.

Cooks is a big loss, but Michael Thomas looks ready to take the reigns and Ted Ginn Jr can be the home-run threat.

The Saints do need to build their defense if they’re gonna make any kind of run to send Drew Brees out on top, but they have enough at the moment to be competitive.

The Falcons only got stronger by adding Dontari Poe and Jack Crawford to an already talented defense. Re-signing Robert Alford was a good move to keep the secondary intact.

On offense, they re-signed Ryan Schraeder and Levine Toilolo which should keep the offensive line together and give Matt Ryan another redzone target. They lost a couple of receivers but bringing in Andre Roberts was a good move. As long as Taylor Gabriel returns, the Falcons are ready to go for 2017.

They need to draft more defense and probably offensive line next month.
